Quote by Wayne Mack

“Our fears are due to our failure to stir up, a failure to think, a failure to take ourselves in hand. You find yourself looking to the future and then you begin to imagine things and you say: “I wonder what is going to happen?” And then your imagination runs away with you. You are gripped by the thing; you do not stop to remind yourself of who and what you are, this thing overwhelms you and you go down. Now the first thing you need to do is take a firm grip of yourself, and speak to yourself. As the Apostle puts it, we have to remind ourselves of certain things. . . . The big thing Paul is saying to Timothy is, “Timothy, you seem to be thinking about yourself and your life and all you have to do as if you are still an ordinary person. But Timothy, you are not an ordinary person. You are a Christian, you have the Spirit of God within”
